Dana 35 to Chrysler 8.25 for XJ swap questions
 

I think the clutches in my 96 XJ w/ Track Lok Dana 35 are going bad.
160,000 miles. (clunking/knocking and growning noises)

I have someone willing to sell me a Chrysler 8.25 from a 96 XJ w<65k
miles for $130

How difficult would the swap be? Tips?

I don't do so serious offroading so i don't really need the 8.25 and
im not sure how much it would cost to have my Dana rebuilt?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanx in advance

Brian

More than likely with the V8 or trailer package came a different axle
ratio. Otherwise it should be a straight bolt in and driveshaft.

My existing drive shaft will work?
